An Offset for Lefties
This was my first Harley Benton, and I truly wasn't sure what to expect. However, when the guitar showed up (about 2 weeks from purchase to arrival--I'm in the States), I was pleasantly surprised by the guitars quality, sound, and looks. There were a few minor faults here and there--some sharp fret ends, dry fingerboard (to be expected), and the frets needed a little polish, but for the price these a hardly dealbreakers.
After a quick setup, the guitar is a joy to play. The P90s growl and live in that space between single coil and humbucker. The neck feels great, fast and chunky in your hands. It feels like a guitar for twice its price.
Honestly, this guitar covers a lot of bases--great first time instrument, perfect mod platform, and just a solid player with a little setup work. It's not just great "for the price." It's a legitimately good instrument.

Overall good
Very good guitar, plays well, good finish quality.
Frets and nut need a small polish though, they are a bit too long so they hurt the fingers.
Definitely worth the price.

Great guitar for the money!
Took the guitar out of the box, tuned it, strummed a few chords and it sounded great already. The action was good and the intonation also. No frets sticking out but the wood in the arm was so dry I had to give it some "love". The inlay job done in this one was very poor and also noticed that the numbers in the volume and tone don't match up. Amped up the P90 Wilkinson pickups sound great, very clear and punchy. Overall, a guitar that feels good, plays good at an unbeatable quality/cost relation.

Great guitar - Fantastic guitar at that price!!
Needed another guitar for different turnings and sounds when recording and seen this left handed model with actual P90s so thought I couldn't go wrong at that price. I received and was blown away with the standard for a guitar so cheap.
I love the sound of the P90s and it has a lovely neck on it that responds well to playing. If I had one gripe it would be the hard tail bridge needs to be raised a touch to stop the strings hitting the bridge but this is literally 2 mins work.
All in all a fantastic purchase for the price and is truly a beautiful guitar. My girlfriend wants to hang it on a wall its so beautiful.
